22 Jump Street  (2014) A Review by Grant Kanigan Directed by: Phil Lord, Christopher Miller Written by: Oren Uziel, Rodney Rothman,                   Michael Bacall,  & Jonah Hill Starring: Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, Ice Cube,                Jillian Bell, Nick Offerman Rating: 14A Release Date: June 6th 2014 Jonah Hill, Ice Cube & Channing Tatum in 22 Jump Street Photo by Glen Wilson - © 2013 Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc. All Rights Reserved. IMAGE IS THE PROPERTY OF SONY PICTURES ENTERTAINMENT INC.      22 Jump Street is the most ridiculous movie of the year. In a cinematic landfill of remakes and sequels, 22 Jump Street gleefully sits on the top, keenly aware of it's position. The difference between this raucous sequel and others, is it knows exactly what it is, and how overwhelmingly ridiculous it is.  While some self aware sequels and satires run thin, 22 Jump Street doesn't even bother to pretend its story is real.
